Available Roles:
Matthew Teitman – Jewish, late 30s, a classic introvert/extrovert: a man most comfortable in the realm of his head but in daily life a performer — flattering and impressing others with his wit and easy charm. He’s an out gay activist who has moved out of an ACT UP mode into working for the ACLU. An artist’s soul, but it is buttoned up behind a need for control and respectability. When that soul slips out, it’s glorious. He’s well-intentioned but blind to his white American privilege.
Naome Ssempa – Ugandan, mid 30s, has a serene, almost zen-like quality about her and a smile that can light up a room. She is serious and passionate but also has a playful wit and sense of fun.
Ina Teitman – Matthew’s mother, Jewish, early 70s, a diminutive but powerful presence. She has seen a lot in her lifetime and it is all visibly etched in her worn, but expressive face. Her no nonsense manner, which can be occasionally abrasive, masks an enormous vulnerability.
